Author Topic: People can't drive.  (Read 2913 times)

I think that was directed towards me. I was doing 50 in a 45 up until ~200 ft before I turned. Driver didn't try to pass me until I was about to turn. If you're calling me a handicap because of that, you have problems.

Speaking of people who can't drive, I'm on my way home today and this handicap is going 15 miles an hour in a 50mph zone, so to avoid crashing into his ass I pass him, but when I'm starting to pass him he turns on his blinker and veers left and then honks as if it's my fault.
You are aware that you're supposed to slow down when you turn, right...? It's pretty dangerous to go into a turn at 50mph.

Wait, why?
Slick's post was a joke making it seem as if he was on the other side of your story

I am with Jeep on this one.

When you are making a left turn, people aren't supposed to pass you on the left. If they absolutely have to pass you they should do so on the right side, not the left.

I hate bad drivers. I commute a little over an hour each way to work, and I see stuffty drivers almost every time.

If it was his fault then definitely. Basically in any accident if it is deemed your fault you insurance rate will go up. But even if huge amounts of damage were caused, if the accident is not deemed your fault your rates wouldn't go up.

I see what you are saying though. Problem is, it would be near impossible to determine that more damage was intentfully caused. There would be no solid proof showing damage was intentfully caused, only proof of the driving violation.

Although it would be extremely difficult to prove, say it was proven more damage was intentfully caused like you were saying. The fault for the accident would be split into halves, meaning both drivers would see increased rates. But I'm pretty sure the person attempting to cause more damage would also go to jail for vehicular assault.

I know if I get in an accident regardless of who is at fault my parents rate will go up since I'm on there plan. Probably mostly because I'm 18 which is in the high risk category of insurance which ends at like 25 or some stuff

That's horrible then. If you are going through an intersection and some idiot blows through a red light and hits you, you insurance shouldn't penalize you for it.

Man, when I'm old enough to drive, I won't. 

We should all get bicycles and throw bricks at bad drivers.

except for the fact that bicycles are much more dangerous and you have a much higher chance of being hit
